Everone loves a log (cabin)

There has been a lot more sewing than knitting going on in my craft corner these days. The above is my first not-from-a pattern log cabin block. I think the fabrics and colors work well for the stripes in my quilt (ooo, yeah, I'm one more rainy weekend away from having a quilt!) but in the log cabin, they look mushy.Maybe it would have looked better if I had paid attention to the fabric more when I was making it, but I was having too much fun being free form.

I'm so excited to finish this project but at the same time, I'm really enjoying it and don't want it to end. As soon as there is something coherent to show for the quilt top, I'll post it. Bring on the rainy weekend!
